There is no way for the QuickJack to come down without weight on it so it makes it tricky getting the rails out of the way. I have to use a floor jack on the front to lift the car enough to put jack stands under it, then lower it some, and then move to the back with the floor jack and do the same thing getting it low enough so I can slide the rails out of the way after lifting and putting the stands in place.

If anyone has a better way please chime in!

A bit of a pain in a$$ compared to the Quick Lift I had but I can store the rails out of the way.
What they said...

Check the air pressure in the assist cylinders. As I recall it needs to be 50 psi, and if the pressure is correct the QuickJack will raise and lower with no weight on it.
